The Eddie & Ozzie Awards celebrate peer-to-peer recognition, shining a light on the industry’s top editorial and design talents for their creativity, innovation, and dedication. Each year, the publishing community gathers to honor these achievements and support the creatives who drive the industry forward.

“While digital transformation continues to reshape how we interact with content, the desire for tactile print remains strong,” said Becky Peck, Group Publisher, Folio. “In this competitive landscape, delivering exceptional content and design is key to cutting through the noise, whether your platform is print, digital, or a hybrid. It’s inspiring to see these creative talents push boundaries, elevate their craft, and produce work that truly resonates with audiences, earning them this prestigious recognition.”

Over 1,000 entries were received across nearly 80 categories. Finalists represent the highest-scoring entries per category, adjudicated by qualified editorial and design professionals. Eddie & Ozzie Awards is the most prestigious recognition program in the publishing community. There’s a place in the spotlight for every digital publication, magazine, regional title, association and brand, recognizing excellence in editorial content creation and design.

“It’s always exceptionally gratifying to be recognized by the industry for the great work our editors are doing on a daily basis,” said Editorial Director of the AIM Marine Group Dan Harding. “While these awards represent single stories and single issues, to me they represent the countless hours our team pours into every story, photo, caption and issue all year round. I’m thankful to be part of this passionate and talented team.”
